To my dear sister as I had said before I'm so sorry that this happened to you. Kristi and I love you very much. I pray every day for justice for you. You will live in my heart until my dying day. I'm so glad we got to meet, but I,m so sad that we didn,t have more time together. But know that we will see each other again in heaven above. May the Lord bring peace to your soul. So fly my beloved sister. Fly to the angels. Words cannot say how broken hearted I am right now, because I can't stop crying writing this.I have deicated a song for my sister and I play it every time I go to see her at Braddock Rd. and that is Fly to the Angels by a 80's band called Slaughter. It says it all for me to my sister. Find it and play it, but I warn you it will make you cry, because it sure does make me cry. I will miss you more than words can say. RIP from your big sister Holly. With love always and forever more.

When I first learned what happened I couldn't beleave it. Things like this don't happen to us. I remember when you were little and stayed at our house, I remember your smile, your laugh, and the crazy things you use to do. You always had a level head and had a wild side. But that was you. We are no longer family but you will always be my niece and always in my heart and my prayers. I know you will always be by your girls side and your moms. Keep them safe and comfort them when they are down. Leave them a sign you are near and in time you will be togather again. Always in my heart

I'm sending my love and warm condolences to family and friends. I love you Sis, I miss you everyday. I am so grateful to the Lord that we got to visit with each other before this happened. I was looking so forward to rekindling our friendship. I want you and everyone else to know how important you are to me. You helped me survive the hardest years of my life, you were the most loyal friend I have ever known, and you had a love of life like no other. Rest in peace Sherry, and know that we are all praying for justice. I love you and I can't wait to see you again and hug you. Love, Skin
